RE: Who is Veronica....

An example is that I have a higher pitched voice in the tenor range. In the
heat of a contest, it can get even higher. Many has been the time I've been
mistaken for a YL while contesting. It's been a great advantage!

Bob, whatever are you talking about?
In point of fact, female voices (as a group) *are* better heard in a
noisy radio environment--maybe not by +6dB, but certainly they do stand
out. Since they tend to have a higher fundamental frequency, they stand
out in a crowd. This is why female-pitched voice recordings are used in
cockpit warning systems. Quite often I find myself wishing for a clear
soprano voice in a pile-up; as it is I'm stuck with my low contralto,
which even sometimes fetches a "sir" from air traffic control when I'm
out flying.
If Veronica and Valery are friends, I don't see any reason they
shouldn't chat...without the presumtion that there's anything wrong with
it. I thought that was one thing that ham radio was for. :-)
